It has been a while since I’ve done a day trip, mainly because I have been very tired. But last Monday myself, my husband and my MacMillan nurse decided that it was time for me to have a proper break from my current chemotherapy regime, which made me very happy.

In the middle of June, we went on a long weekend break to Ruthern Valley Holidays in Cornwall. It was a self-catering holiday, but instead of a caravan or a tent, we stayed in a camping wigwam! I had been inspired by the wigwamming trip that a number of my Click Collective friends had been on earlier in the year in Northumberland, so I was eager to give it a go!

Ahhh, these short, damp and often dark winter days have got me thinking about the long, warm and bright summer days, so I thought I’d share some of my photos from this summer. This first set is a day trip I took with my children to Walton-on-the-Naze back in May.
